Join us for this eye-opening session from the 7th Annual HVAC/R Training Symposium featuring industry experts Roman Baugh and Adam Mufich as they expose the truth about inverter-driven HVAC systems.
What You'll Learn:
Common Inverter Problems - Why these systems fail and how to prevent callbacks
Design Mistakes - Oversized inverters acting as expensive single-stage units
Dehumidification Challenges - Understanding sensible heat factors and humidity control modes
Building Science Integration - How envelope leakage and infiltration affect inverter performance
Installation Best Practices - Proper setup, commissioning, and field settings configuration
Troubleshooting Techniques - Using the diagnostic triangle and understanding EEV operation
Refrigerant Charging - Advanced methods for verifying proper charge in inverter systems
Climate-Specific Applications - When inverters thrive vs. when they struggle
Key Topics Covered:
Why education is the biggest challenge with inverter technology
The difference between "smart" and "dumb" inverters
Dehumidification modes: overcooling vs. coil saturation control
How duct leakage creates a "double whammy" effect
Rotary vs. scroll compressor technology in inverters
Mini-split performance data and missing specifications
Variable capacity adjustments and compressor overclocking
ERV integration and ventilation strategies
The importance of building envelope testing
This presentation goes beyond equipment to address the complete system - from ductwork design to building envelope performance. Whether you're installing your first inverter system or troubleshooting recurring callbacks, this session provides the knowledge you need to succeed.
